stevo_12v · 07-16-2012, 02:50 AM

Got my plates today!

stevo_12v · 07-19-2012, 06:13 AM

Hit 1700kms today

I was up near Beverley, WA.

Almost got stuck there too, 1/4 tank of gas and trying to find the closest servo :/

Xauterus · 07-19-2012, 07:22 AM

I think there is actually 10 litres approximately when needle is on empty. Need to test this out though

LazyZed · 07-19-2012, 07:35 AM

will have to organise a cruise when I get my beastie. Not til January, but at least it will be nice cruising weather

I added some lights last week, got round to uploading the pics.
I got these from fellow member KI_ZN6 very good and quick to deal with.

Boot

License plate lights - normal lightning

License plate lights - night lighting

I got my TRD goodies yesterday.. and my BeatSonic shark fin this morning.
Here's some pics after the installation.

Still have to install the TRD Door Stabilizer set though. I called up City Toyota service to see if they can help me 'crack' open the countersunk 10mm phillips head holding the door clasp.

Also still have to install the CUSCO Oil/Air separator

BeatSonic(D4S)

TRD Strut Brace

TOP SECRET Bonnet Damper

JiB · 08-07-2012, 06:57 AM

nice! i like the TRD strut brace!

stevo_12v · 08-09-2012, 01:40 PM

TRD Door Stabilizers

FINALLY got them installed. Thanks to Chriss and Terry from CITY TOYOTA NORTHBRIDGE SERVICE CENTRE

The damn metal bolts holding them are almost impossible to get off.

There is a noticeable and pleasant 'thud' when closing the door now. Haven't driven the car with them on to notice any difference in handling. Honestly I suppose I got it for the w*nkfactor and cos I'm a brand-whore. lol

Here's some installed pics.

Now.. next things to do.
Order the following
TRD Sports Panel Air Filter (Part Number: MS155-00009): 8700Yen
TRD Fuel Cap Cover (Part Number: MS360-00001): 4000Yen
TRD Billet Aluminium Oil Cap (Part Number: MS112-18001): 10500Yen
TRD Front Brake Pad Set (Part Number: MS225-18001): 15400Yen
TRD 1.3 Bar Radiator Cap(Still have to find out the P/N and cost)

stevo_12v · 08-23-2012, 02:04 PM

Picked up my RS-R coil overs off a fellow ft86club member tonight.
These RS-R's are slightly used, probably like a months use if that, but I prob saved a couple hundred off the normal price.

Some pics of the RS-R's

Also purchase ordered a "Braille" lightweight battery. Namely the B14115.

Specs are:
Weight: 5.2kg
Length: 147mm
Width: 86mm
Height: 147mm
PCA904
Ah 15

Also got a battery tender(for when the car is parked) and a smaller mounting strap. Just under $360 AUD total(including freight).

DriftEightSix · 08-26-2012, 11:28 PM

What are the spring rate of the RS*R?

How low you looking to go?

stevo_12v · 08-27-2012, 06:21 AM

I'm not sure on the spring rates :/
I got it off someone else 2nd hand.

I got a little pressie this morning though! Check out my KNOB!

Not the EXACT same gear knob, but it is the same model. I will take a pic of it later. Feels SO MUCH BETTER than the stock gear knob.

stevo_12v · 08-27-2012, 01:01 PM

Got the VooDoo this morning.

Got the Braille B14115 this afternoon.

Car is half-lowered(front end only) going to do the rear end tonight.

Luke.Cariveau · 08-27-2012, 01:12 PM

Look's amazing! Love the wheel choice.

stevo_12v · 08-28-2012, 06:19 AM

Was out an about alot today. Only managed to snap some lowered pics

Turbowned · 08-28-2012, 09:46 AM

Looks great! Your pics are too big for my netbook though

stevo_12v · 08-29-2012, 02:10 AM

I need to get the car lifted up 10mm and get an alignment...

stevo_12v · 08-29-2012, 02:14 PM

Decided to install my Braille B14115(aka Deka ETX14)

Also got an "Unsuccessful Delivery Attempt" notice from DHL in the mail. Guess my other TRD goodies will be here tomorrow

Car looks good lowered!

Seems like you need some spacers to get the rears to sit nice.

you thought about doing that at all?

stevo_12v · 08-30-2012, 10:24 AM

It actually sits fine, except I got a bunch of camber because the car's lowered 1.5-2.0 inches. I need to take it to a suspension place to get a wheel alignment, height adjusted to 105mm and get the wheels balanced again.

stevo_12v · 08-30-2012, 12:55 PM

My other TRD goodies arrived this afternoon. As always, I took some happy snaps

Box
